Confetti

Pieces of my life

Lay scattered

Broken dreams

Lie in a river of tears

Only God can mend

Making unwise choices

Following blind guides

Leads to securing

Path of broken dreams

Do not remain there

Turn around, go back

Gather scattered pieces

To recreate your dreams

Syllabic Verse

Soaring

Full of lofty goals

I soar higher than the stars

Music in my soul

Catapulting me forward

Until I reach a million dreams

Tanka

(I was inspired to write this poem after listening to “A Million Dreams” Song from the movie “The Greatest Showman” and I added it to a paper collage piece I was working on that the song also inspired me to create😩)

Missed Opportunities

Garden in winter

In the chill of winter

Beyond the garden gate

Frozen fruit awaits

A harvest long past

Syllabic Verse

Callous Critic

Posted on January 14, 2019January 15, 2019 by Leonas Lines

Pointing finger

Who are you that sits on a self made throne,

That’s padded with a pillow of pride,

Wearing a robe of perfection?

Your know-it-all attitude

And hastily pointing fingers,

Fill the air with dread,

As you speak words

That tear down

Someone’s

Dream.

Looking into God’s Mirror

Posted on January 13, 2019 by Leonas Lines

Mirror with a green frame

Child

If only

You could see

Yourself in Christ

For who you really are

And not what your mind sees

Then you truly would be in awe

You would never worry or be in fear

For In My eyes you reflect my Beloved

Nonet

I am currently writing a Daily Devotional for my online ministry titled “Who Am I”.

For 30 days it will share scriptures and messages about who believers are in Christ. It is an eye opening and inspiring journey to learn all the blessings and benefits believers receive in Christ that most don’t even realize, walk in or live out daily. This devotional has been inspiring me daily as I write it and I feel blessed to be able to write and share it with others each day. If any of you are interested in receiving it daily you can find it at this link: Smile God Loves You Daily Devotionals
